It's Been a Long, Long Time

from Feels Like Home by Blackwood Harvest

lyrics

You make me fee like I’ve just begun,
You make me feel, I’ve been here again,
You make me feel like I understand,
You make me feel like I’ve just begun…

Because it’s been awhile since I was in the land where the spirit died…
And if I leave this town, am I really just leaving myself behind?
Or just someone else’s mind?
Just think about all the good we’ll see,
If we just change our perception of the sky,
Because I was a man,
But now I’m just an ordinary guy,
Because if love’s just a contest
I’ll be lucky if I make it out alive…
And if we make our dreams come true,
Then maybe this surreal life will subside…
Yeah, we’ll make it if we try…
And it’s been a while since the dawn of our kind…
And like a photograph, it’s here and gone in a blink of an eye.
It’s been a long, long, long time…

It’s been a while, it’s been a long long long time…
